This DVD, Strip & Slash, by Jackie Robinson, is from 9-Patch Media. They offer several quilting DVDs and I own several of them. They have all been enjoyable, and run over 2 hours long. Good entertainment and I watch them many, many times. Occasionally they are on sale as well. Like many instructional DVDs, they have to include a lot of extra material for those who are not familiar with all the quilting methods. That's OK with me.
Back to this method to make split 9-patches - these pieces are small, - strips are cut 1 3/4, and 2 1/2 inches - kinda tedious, even though they are strip pieced, but the benefit of "small" is that almost any fabrics can be used - just use lights and darks. Jackie seems to like unusual "methods" -- I admire that! She also talks about how to use "twinkle" in your quilt, and the DVD includes a number of her samples (both good AND not-so-good) and also many EQ samples. I enjoy seeing samples that did NOT work - that's always a good lesson.
I'm still not sure I LIKE this method over the tradional method, but it's another option, especially if your scraps are totally uncoordinated. This is NOT a good technique to make one or two blocks - it's a GREAT technique to use your little scraps up. As in many techniques, if you start with an organized "system" it gets fast.
... and I know you will ask, will I finish this? Not sure, as there is another WIP on the floor, just beyond the camera! 8-))
I am now officially RETIRED. Not sure I like it but ... for everything there is a season.
